Critic Review
Don’t let the pale garnet color fool you:  this is a substantial wine.  Aromas of red fruits and spice complement undertones of cranberries, wild berries, and plums.  On the palate, ripe tannins and good body make for an incredibly rich, yet easygoing red wine.  Pair this wine with sausage, spicy curry sauces, hot soppressata, and tandoori chicken.

My Review
  • Smell: wild flowers, potpourri, dark apples, cherry, cranberries
  • Taste: cranberries, plums, dark apples, earthy
  • This wine had great tannins for a very enjoyable finish
Overall this wine was very smooth and easy to drink, I think the recommendation is spot on when it says it would be good with sausage and spicy foods. I did not pair this wine with food.
